About Christina Sullivan, LCSW

 

Christina Sullivan, MSW, LCSW, is a licensed clinical social worker, experienced clinical supervisor, and founder of Broward Therapy Group in Davie, Florida. With nearly 30 years of experience, she specializes in supporting neurodivergent children, teens, young adults, and families navigating autism, ADHD, OCD, anxiety, executive functioning challenges, and school-related concerns.

Christina provides individual and family therapy, parent coaching, clinical supervision, and consultation for schools and caregivers, with a specialty in neuroaffirming and trauma-informed care. She is trained in SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions), an evidence-based parent intervention model for anxiety and OCD, as well as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD and phobias. Her integrative approach combines clinical expertise with lived insight to help clients feel understood and empowered.

Services are available in person in Davie, FL, and throughout Florida via telehealth.


Neuroaffirming Support, Rooted in Lived Experience

Christina’s work is informed by both clinical training and personal experience as a parent of a neurodivergent son diagnosed with autism and OCD. She understands the gaps in care, the consequences of misdiagnosis, and the frustration families feel when therapy isn’t effective or affirming.

Her approach is grounded in the belief that neurodivergence is not something to be “fixed,” but something to be understood, supported, and honored. Christina is passionate about helping clients and supervisees see autism, ADHD, and other neurological differences through a strengths-based, affirming lens.


Clinical Experience & Supervision

Christina is a member of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) and has provided therapy and clinical leadership across a range of settings, including:

  • Miami-Dade County Public Schools Autism Programs

  • Community mental health and foster care systems

  • Hospital-based programs

  • Private practice and specialized therapeutic schools

As a Qualified Supervisor in the state of Florida, she has supervised:

  • Registered Clinical Social Work Interns, Mental Health Counselors, and Psychology Interns

  • Doctoral practicum students and post-doctoral candidates

  • Graduate interns from Nova Southeastern University, FAU, FIU, Barry University, and FSU

She offers structured, collaborative, and supportive supervision rooted in professional development, clinical confidence, and ethical care.


Innovation & Past Programs

In 2015, Christina co-founded Evolve Learning Community, a progressive micro-school in Broward County for neurodivergent middle and high school students. As Clinical Director, she developed a therapeutic educational model that integrated:

  • Executive functioning coaching

  • Social-emotional learning

  • Sensory accommodations and mental health support

She also created and led an evidence-based summer camp for youth with autism, ADHD, and related profiles, and co-created B.R.I.D.G.E., a peer mentorship and inclusion curriculum used in schools, camps, and afterschool programs to support social connection.

Although Evolve closed in 2024, its affirming model continues to inspire Christina’s work at Broward Therapy Group and beyond.

A Resilient Life Beyond Therapy

Christina is a two-time cancer survivor and thriver, an experience that deepened her empathy and commitment to helping others live with meaning and resilience. She has completed marathons, earned a Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do, and is a certified yoga instructor.

She also brings a lived understanding of grief and loss—her younger brother passed away from alcoholism at the age of 33. This deeply personal experience shapes her compassionate approach to supporting clients navigating trauma, addiction, and bereavement.

Christina believes in the power of wellness foundations—movement, mindfulness, connection, and purpose—and supports her clients in building lives aligned with their strengths and values.

Outside of work, she enjoys yoga, weight training, hiking, biking, and time with her son and rescue pets: Rodney (a spirited Chihuahua mix), Daisy (an American Staffordshire Terrier in therapy dog training), and her two cats, Sophie and Chloe.
